Gardening and Gardener Services in San Isidro, Alicante

First-season garden set-up and maintenance

New gardens in San Isidro often need a thorough assessment before a maintenance plan can be established: soil condition, irrigation coverage gaps, and shrub placement all need checking. We carry out an initial visit, sort out any immediate problems, and then agree on a regular schedule that keeps the garden developing well through its first seasons.

Drip and micro-spray irrigation installation

Many properties in San Isidro have basic watering setups that were adequate at handover but are not suited to a fully planted garden. We design and install drip systems tailored to your specific planting, programme timers for the Vega Baja summer conditions, and check that every zone is actually reaching the root zone rather than the surface.

Hedge and shrub pruning

Fast-growing hedging species such as cypress, pittosporum, and oleander establish quickly in this climate but need cutting back at least twice a year to maintain shape and density. We prune at the right times of year to encourage bushy regrowth rather than bare stems, and clear away all arisings after each visit.

Young fruit tree pruning and training

Properties with young citrus, fig, or almond trees need formative pruning in the first few years to establish a good structure before the trees are large enough to make the job difficult. Getting the framework right early results in healthier, more productive trees and avoids the corrective surgery needed on neglected specimens.

Lawn care and renovation

Lawns on new builds in San Isidro are often laid on poorly prepared soil that compacts quickly and drains badly, leading to patchy growth and yellowing in summer. We aerate, scarify, and overseed where needed, and adjust irrigation timing to help the grass cope with the heat of July and August without burning off entirely.

Plot clearing and weed control

Perimeter strips and unplanted areas around newer properties quickly fill with fast-growing weeds through spring and become a fire risk by early summer. We clear and treat these areas, can apply mulch to suppress regrowth, and return for follow-up visits to keep them under control through the drier months.
